The artificial intelligence (AI) boom this year has taken the tech world by storm. While the tech sector is brimming with options for investors looking to gain exposure, with the industry giants gaining lots of attention, many smaller players also deserve to be recognized.
My first pick is Super Micro Computer (SMCI), whose investors are celebrating this year's outsized gains of 257% YTD, compared to the 42% gain of the tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite ($NASX). Nonetheless, Wall Street expects the stock to rise even higher in the coming year.
